BANDAR LAMPUNG - Chairman of the PKB DPP Cucun Ahmad Syamsurijal assessed that there was an attempt to kill the character against Muhaimin Iskandar regarding his political move towards the 2024 presidential election.

"It is important to note that nowadays, there are people who make 'character assessments' or character decays. 'How come with this? It will be like this later'," said Member of Commission III of the DPR in front of the structure management of the DPW/DPC PKB Lampung, the PKB leg, and representatives of NU at the district/city level during the Lampung PKB Coordination Meeting, in Bandar Lampung, reported by ANTARA, Thursday, October 5.

However, he continued, PKB strongly believes that all its cadres can sort out and choose which news is true and the hoax is related to Muhaimin Iskandar.

"Even the PKB which is predicted to be locked and difficult to find a way out. But now it is causing a stir throughout the archipelago with Muhaimin Iskandar to become the vice president's reading from Anies," he said.

According to Cucun, Muhaimin Iskandar's candidacy as a vice presidential candidate in the 2024 presidential election has gone through a long process since the 2019 Bali Congress until now, where the PKB DPP has been mandated by all DPWs, DPCs, and all cadres to take tactical steps.

"It is time for PKB together with NU cadres to determine policies in the country and not only as complements or followers in the life of the nation and state," he said.

He emphasized that PKB cadres should be proud of Gus Muhaimin because now this party can play all political roles.

"PKB has always been a follower and complement to the coalition, but now we are playing all these political roles, so all cadres must be proud of Gus Muhaimin," he said.
